In his second day of testimony before the senate judiciary committee, concerning his nomination to the supreme court, of the corporate United states, judge Robert Bork, of the District of Columbia court of appeals, denies there is a “general right to freedom” in Article IX of Amendment.  Bork, instead compares the Article to an inkblot: “It’s as though you had a copy of the Constitution and there was an inkblot on it and you couldn’t read what was under the inkblot, I don’t think judges should make up what’s under the inkblot.”

       NOTE: The senate judiciary committee eventually rejected Judge Bork, and—when Republican (fascist/socialist) President Reagan refused to withdraw the nomination—by the full senate as well.
